Literacy Volunteers of Rensselaer County plays an important role in our community by offering English, math, financial, and computer literacy instruction to approximately 200 adult learners each year. Through a cadre of trained volunteer tutors, we provide one-to-one and small group tutoring to Capital Region residents with low literacy levels – including English language learners (non-native speakers). Our confidential services are provided free of charge to students. Costs are covered through government grants, and generous donations from foundations, businesses, and individuals.

We strive to ensure that adult learners who need literacy services have access to well-organized and high quality literacy and English language instruction.

Please join us for this early afternoon dessert extravaganza where we will highlight twelve of our adult students who will stand at the podium and read a creative narrative that they wrote by themselves. This is a huge accomplishment for them – please support their success by attending this engaging event.
